Although the movie will not hit the cinemas until April next year, we’ve been waiting for a live-action remake of The Jungle Book for years and it’s certainly worth the wait. The cast is incredible with Bill Murray playing the lovable Baloo the Bear, Ben Kingsley is the voice of the panther Bagheera, Scarlett Johansson as Kaa the snake and Idris Elba as our childhood fear Shere Khan the tiger. Mowgli will be played by Neel Sethi.

Without further adieu, let’s have a sneak peek.
